About a week ago I went to a friend of mine who has a car dealership in athens. He showed me an audi s3 with about 280bhp and he told me he would take my car for 9000 euros the audi costs about 20000 euros.What do you think?I have saved up some money for a 3gte engine swap

True 4wd system has low gearing for off road driving. And usually have locked diffs.
AWD dont have low gearing and are used for on road application. http://auto.howstuffworks.com/four-wheel-drive.htm This post has been edited by Kadett: Aug 6, 2005 - 8:15 AM -------------------- JDM Powerplant installed, BPU coming very soon!

While the more high end cars have AWD. I would guess atleast. 4WD is the fun thingy, but AWD is the boring kinda thing  Or something like that.. Anyway, this is going way off topic. Sorry Lazy!

Sorry Lazy!this is not how awd works at all. think of it this way. Awd is all the time. 4wd is selected. they can both be used off road. (rally cars are usually awd) if you've been in a truck with 4wd you will see something like 4L meaning 4 wheel drive low. this is for going up/down steep terrain or getting stuck etc. bleh i don't feel like typing, just read about it. not the same thing and awd is def. not boring. |
